I don't. Haven't seen snow since 1977 when I moved to SoCal (unless I drove up to Big Bear Mtn.). Suits me fine.

I can honestly say, I don't miss snow one bit as my last winter had Sandy and over three feet of snow in one snowfall. :(

I'm happy that I don't have to shovel sunshine. You need to get down here!!!! :smiley:

BTW - I saw in today's Daily Sun that it dropped to 17 degrees in my hometown. :cold:

Yes very much now that I don't have to drive to work daily.

Not one little bitty bit!

Sounds beautiful.
I don't care if I ever see snow again!
Been there, done that......

Yes, I do miss the beauty of gently falling snow, covering everything that could be seen with a blanket of white flakes, life becoming pure and clean for at least a short time. Air is breathable, allergies dissipate, life feels really good........ Only weather more beautiful than freshly fallen snow is waking up on a perfectly sunshine filled day after a winter ice storm when your world truly becomes a magical winter wonderland, with trees sparkling like a thousand diamonds.

There is all kinds of beauty in the world, and although I am ever so grateful to be in the warmth of Florida for the winters now, I am happy to have the memories of winters past.

Snow isn't the problem. It's the ICE that forms.

Who wants their 80+year-old parents creeping around on ice, and then when they fall and crack their head or hips, the working adult kids are expected to take off work to travel to them and care for them??????

And what senior can afford an $800 heating bill? Our A/C bills here have never exceeded $189 in the three hottest months.
